Based on company stock market performance, Motilal Oswal Financial Services conducted the analysis. According to a report by Motilal Oswal Financial Services, Adani Enterprises Ltd was the best all-around wealth creator during the five-year period from 2018 to 2023, while Reliance Industries Ltd was the largest wealth creator.
According to the report, which was based on how well companies performed on the stock market, Reliance became the biggest wealth builder for the fifth time in a row by accumulating ₹9,63,800 crore in wealth between 2018 and 23.
Following it were Bharti Airtel (₹2,80,800 crore), Infosys (₹3,61,800 crore), ICICI Bank (₹4,15,500 crore), and Tata Consultancy Services (₹6,77,400 crore).
With a price CAGR of 79% from 2018 to 2023, Lloyds Metals, a little-known business, has become the wealth creator with the quickest rate of growth”. With a CAGR of 78%, Adani Enterprises Ltd.—the Adani Group’s main incubation company—comes in second.
It predicted that ₹10 lakh invested in the top 10 wealth producers in 2018 would be worth ₹1 crore by 2023, representing a 59% compound annual growth rate.
With a price compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 50%, Capri Global has outperformed the BSE Sensex over the last five years, according to Motilal, making it the most reliable wealth builder.
Adani Enterprises is the best overall wealth creator, and Reliance is the largest wealth creator.
The study defined ‘all-round wealth producers’ as the largest, fastest, and most reliable stock market performance. It concluded that Adani Enterprises is the best all-around wealth creator. It is the second fastest, fifth most consistent, and ninth-largest wealth producer.
Varun Beverages, Adani Power, Tube Investments, and ICICI Bank come next. Reliance comes in at number ten on this list.
“The top 100 wealth producers in India Inc. generated wealth of ₹70.5 lakh crore from 2018 to 23. This is less than the ₹92.2 lakh crore they generated from 2017 to 22. The study stated that while the pace of wealth creation at 21% CAGR is lower than it was in the preceding 5-year period (28%), it is still much higher than the 12% return of the BSE Sensex.
Over the course of the last 17 five-year research periods, Reliance has risen from its overall No. 1 ranking to 10 as the highest wealth producer for the fifth time in a row. TCS and Infosys are two of the top 5 wealth producers on a constant basis.
“HDFC Bank does not feature in the top 10 list of wealth creators for the first time in several years,” according to the research.
The IT industry has surpassed consumer, retail, and financials to become the top wealth-creating sector for the second year in a row. Additionally, technology now accounts for a sizable portion of wealth generation (20%) as opposed to 9% five years ago.
Similar to previous year, chemicals and fertilisers have a 3% market share, making them the new child on the block. Auto and rate-sensitive financials are the biggest losers.
The wealth generation performance of PSUs (public sector undertakings) from 2018 to 23 is markedly better than that of the previous two studies: The seven PSUs make up 6% of the total wealth generated.
“Two key factors have driven PSU wealth creation, turnaround by two banks (SBI and Bank of Maharashtra) and growth in the defence sector (Bharat Dynamics, Bharat Electronics and Hindustan Aeronautics),” it stated.
